christmas crafting

i made these the other day...they came out all right... they are very sweet and romantic for a vintage feather tree.
i painted the birds with watercolors and the adhered the glitter...or diamond dust.
added a small bunch of vintage flowers and some seam binding ribbon... here are some ornaments i made from old book paper, sheet music, curtain rings, and ribbon...
i was disappointed with the frame...i thought it would look nicer than it did. don't you hate when you imagine things coming out way nicer than they do?

Those sweet little birds look fantastic! I'm seriously challenged when it comes to crafts, but I think I might be able to pull this one off.
Have a great Thursday!
